HMD View Leaks: Compact Mid-Ranger with Premium Touches
Leaked information points to HMD Global gearing up to release the HMD View, a stylish mid-range smartphone with a metal frame and OLED display. While positioned as a successor to the Nokia X30, it will reportedly ditch the Nokia branding.
What We Know So Far:
- Design: The HMD View boasts a sleek, understated design with a slightly rounded metal frame. It features a side-mounted fingerprint sensor embedded in the power button and a rectangular camera module housing two lenses and an LED flash. Color options include "Meteor Black," "Ice," and "Velvet."
- Display: Despite its compact size, the phone packs a 6.4-inch OLED display with a resolution of 1080p+, promising vibrant colors and sharp visuals.
- Camera: A 50-megapixel main camera is expected to handle photography duties. Details about the secondary lens remain under wraps.
- Performance: Powering the HMD View is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 6s Gen 3, a new 6nm chipset that might leave some wanting more in terms of raw performance. It features two ARM Cortex-A78 performance cores clocked at up to 2.3 GHz and six Cortex-A55 efficiency cores at 2.0 GHz.
- Memory and Battery: At least one variant of the HMD View will come equipped with 8 GB of RAM. A 4,700 mAh battery is expected to provide decent battery life.
Pricing and availability details remain unknown at this time. However, given its rumored July launch window, we can expect more information to surface soon.
